Topic: Local Sales

[Claire.]

yeah, depends on how easy it is for them to do and the costs of setting it up and sending it all out.

[30fiver]

Any idea which seats/why?

Because they didnt know what the exact capacity would be in lower, if any at all... needed the test event to get signed off

[30fiver]

Was hoping they’d carry on using the individual link method, but looks like it’s back to the chaos tomorrow then

Sure it wont be for long

[Claire.]

Yep, chaos resumed 😩

[mattyyt]

I’m position 224 and still got an 8 minute queue! Either they’re letting 1 in at a time or people already found a new way in

[Claire.]

Seems like it, I'm 19k+ and it's barely moved.

You in and they all gone?

[mattyyt]

Yeah all gone. One popped up in AL2 but gave me a message that I wasn’t eligible when I pressed the button, I think because I wasn’t signed in, wonder if they’ve finally put that in to stop people basketing for others

[Claire.]

Well it's a start, I wonder if they're also checking eligibility trying to basket if you are logged in and then booting the time wasters out.

This will be the last time like this...

[Bapsandwaps]

This will be the last time like this...

Give us a clue kenny 

[Claire.]

🤞🙏

[Claire.]

Now saying sold out, queue moved about 4k places.

[courty61]

This will be the last time like this...

Why? What they planning?

[30fiver]

This will be the last time like this...

Will if it's in in time for villa

Might change now the contractors gone under!

[courty61]

Anyone have any luck?

[Claire.]

Nope, 40k now but isn't surprising since we know the touts love these.

[sharkeyb]

yup waste of time

I've stayed in to see how it's moving - people in front has halved so moving faster than the member's one.

I’ve refreshed over 100 times since getting in at 11.13 and nothing has popped up. You can’t even see the hallmap.

😬 it's still saying limited on the queue, must be odd one in people's baskets.

I was in after two mins today, sold out. Nothing since

[Claire.]

Now it says sold out.

Did you get in on the first batch or a small wait?

[Bapsandwaps]

It was about a 3 minute wait, low hundreds, but sold out when in. Refreshed since but nothing so far

We deffo need unique links for these, it's how it would it would work that would be the issue and obviously not allowing you to change address without proving it. I know it'd be an arse but if they asked us to turn up at the ground over the international break to show ID to qualify for these, it'd be so much better.

Well 1/8 of the population of Liverpool was in the queue! I still don’t know how in 2023 you can’t provide software that allows one login per person who qualifies. Baffles me.

Any ideas how many local tickets are sold for each game? Collection at Anfield with ID & a utility bill would be one solution, or a turnstile just for local tickets where you need to show a bill and ID to get in would be a stronger one to fully eliminate the touts.

Agree they should do some in-person address verifications. Should be annual as well, I know students that have moved out of Liverpool but kept their L address on the account for these sales.

They will be out in the next few weeks with changes, the touts should fill their boots this weekend, it is about to get a lot tougher.

Just for local sales ? or all though ?

When they first appeared, I remember getting a line in my history saying I qualified for them and you had to pick up paper tickets at the window and show ID. I didn't mind having to go and pick them up but them being paper tickets made them easy to pass on, there was a period where the stewards would speak to people in that section and you'd see them taking names and details.

Good.

[sonofkenny]

All eventually but just locals to start with.

I think it was around 500 when first brought in. No idea if that ever changed.

It used to be better when you had to pick up the ticket in person.

As has been said before there are easy ways around this but the club don't have the appetite to sort

Approx 500 local general and 500 local members

Give or take

[Shanklygates]

Sounds promising but given the events of this week I am not counting chickens just yet! Thanks for the info though

[mattyyt]

Well that was a dodgy one… Went on the site around 7:45, straight in, never got put in a queue, tickets appeared around 8:20 and just bought one. Someone’s messed up 

[JerseyKloppite]

I got the timing wrong and thought it was at 8.30

How many were up do you know? Seen a few blocks go orange in Lower Anny but was too slow.

Same mate. Seen limited singles there tho. I was after two.next to each other for me and daughter. My choose seats is fucked now that eligibility message appears even with a single, I go into seats and they are there to click. Can't compete with bots like this

same! Got in around 8:14... nothing... then popped up....there were seats showing in Kenny and main too which given its the local members there shouldn't have been. Managed one in the lower Annie!

I think that due to the Annie Road work and reduced capacity they've said that today's local sales will have tickets all over the grounds.
